About Namibia

From the red-hued dunes of the Namib Desert to the vibrant Himba people who roam the Kalahari, Namibia is a remarkable African nation offering a plethora of unique experiences. Whether you’re looking to safari among herds of wildlife, hike rugged trails in the sand, or explore its colourful cities, our selection of the best places to stay in Namibia offer great access to the country’s best-kept outdoor secrets — expect eclectic budget hotels and chic desert lodges alike. Join us on a journey to discover the wildlife, culture, and remarkable sights of this gem of an African nation.

Start with the surreal landscape of Hidden Vlei, the Dead Vlei, and Sossusvlei, surrounded by towering dunes in shades of red and orange, and take the time to bask in 300 days of sunlight all year round. Deadvlei is a photographer’s dream, one of Namibia’s most spectacular sights, with its starkly contrasting colors and pitch-black acacia trees estimated to be 900 years old. Don’t miss the unique Cape Cross Seal Reserve, home to a thriving seal rookery and black-backed jackals as well as an abundance of other wildlife.

Travel Information

  • International visitors fly into Windhoek's Hosea Kutako International Airport, 28 miles east of the capital.
  • The best time to visit Namibia is late June to October, when the temperatures are in the low 20°Cs and the chance of rainfall is low. This is also the best time for wildlife viewing. However, it's also peak travel season, so plan well in advance.
  • If you are on a self drive visit or safari, we recommend you visit our online partner Rentalcars.
